I have the same problem with the pdf -> epub conversion…

If I open the pdf with stanza, the conversion is done well and if I convert with the command line tool from calibre (ebook-convert <File.pdf> <File.epub>) the conversion is done well either…
So why can't calibre convert a pdf the "right" way, without inserting a line break at every line end?
Is there really no way to change something in the preferences of calibre to use it for pdf conversion? Any help would be great!
